Marker of the Month - Gears of War Lancer

I've come to the conclusion that I'm not going to be on top of designating a favoured milsim marker every week, so say hello to Marker of the Month! Appropriately, I'll post this up (give or take) on the last day of every month.

August's Marker of the Month:

Gears of War Lancer

Alright, so it's not exactly milsim, but the badassery of this paintball mod completely negates that.

Specs:
  • Three feet long
  • A5 internals
  • Working Lancer cocking handle
  • What looks to be a long Flasc barrel J&J barrel
  • Non-functioning chainsaw bayonet
I've been a big fan of chainsaw bayonets ever since I used to play Warhammer 40k (years and years ago, still have my minis hanging around somewhere), and the intimidation factor it adds to a paintball marker is amazing. No way to dispute a barrel tag from this thing (although good luck sneaking up on someone with it).

Props to Thunderhead for this amazing mod. Check out the progress pictures here.
